I have been using news paper for a short time i recently started str8 shaving, i will go real slow with the strop. when i make a mistake with news paper i dont care i just turn it around or remove the page.Here is a pic of the strop ends 1 leather piece is lighter in color than the other.

I thought that the "better" strops were leather on front & back.
I have one here that has "Sharpen" just above the handle, the other side has "Finish" in the same place. At the top it has "KEEN EDGE"
On the handle it has "All ??????" and the number 159 inside a circle.
.........momma
PS No where near as nice as Joe's

Hey, don't worry about the nicks. It's a Craftsman.....if it breaks you just take it back to Sears and they give you a new one : )

Really a nice strop! If you ever want to trade for something..........
